Trump and Hegesth need people to be mindless zombies, only follow the orders that their given, not think more holistically about them. So literally anything that might cause someone to question: Is this order aligned with my oath? is a huge threat. To them, "treason" (which it's not) /END

An essential read from Carol Leonnig: “If it was anybody else, we'd arrest him tomorrow.” That’s what an experienced Justice Department official said about Donald Trump after the FBI discovered hundreds of classified documents concealed from investigators. And it’s indisputable.
